35. Opening of the examination (medium)
Killing relatives and slaughtering demons? Killed his many blood relatives at the age of nine? How can it be?
Zhang Longqian's eyes widened, and his heart was full of disbelief.
However, the conviction on Zhou Miao and Bai Lu's faces couldn't help but make her disbelieve.
But, if that's the case, wouldn't Ji Haiyun be loyal to a bloodthirsty and cruel person? Would he be willing to give anything for a man who killed his own blood relative?
Unspeakable worry appeared in her heart, Zhang Longqian frowned, but even if this was the case, what could she do? After all, in any way, this is Ji Haiyun's own business, and she has no right to interfere at all, right?
Realizing this, Zhang Longqian's gaze dimmed slightly, and her chest couldn't help but throb slightly when she remembered Ji Haiyun's sunny and almost fake smile.
It's true...... Can't do anything?
Seeing Zhang Longqian, who fell silent after hearing these words, Zhou Miao didn't speak again, but Bai Lu, who had already known these things, asked a little puzzled: "Long Qian, why do you suddenly want to ask this?" ”
Immediately hiding his mood, Zhang Longqian pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "It's okay, I just thought that I had met three of the 'Four Sons', so I simply asked about the situation of the remaining one in advance, so that if I meet him, I can make a correct response, so as not to make an inexplicable enemy...... Something like that. ”
Without the slightest doubt about Zhang Longqian's words, Bai Lu blinked and giggled: "It turned out to be for this!" Don't worry! You won't meet a murderer! ”
The certain tone made Zhang Longqian raise his eyebrows slightly: "Why?" ”
"Because he's not in the academy at all!"
Cast an inquiring glance at Zhou Miao, and after getting her affirmative look, Zhang Longqian let out an "oh" and said casually: "Because you are the heir of the first family, do you want to cultivate it alone?" ”
"About this......" got up and sat on the edge of the bed and leaned out towards Zhang Long, his face was mysterious, and his voice was lowered, "Although I heard that there is also this reason inside, but in fact, no one knows what the real reason is, what the Zhang family claims to the outside world is that because Zhang Wenyu killed all the heads of the Zhang family, he is still being punished, so since that incident happened back then, no one from the outside world has ever seen him again." ”
Zhang Longqian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
Thinking about it, it was nearly eight years ago that the head of the Zhang family was completely destroyed, but now Zhang Wenyu is still being punished, it seems that although the academy is very indifferent to life and death, at least the Zhang family still takes it very seriously.
With such emotion in his heart, Zhang Longqian asked: "It has lasted for nearly eight years, what kind of punishment is it?" ”
Bai Lu raised her index finger and opened it solemnly.
"I've thought about it."
The silence lasted for a while, but without waiting for Bai Lu's next sentence, Zhang Longqian finally let out a shocked voice.
"Huh? That's it? ”
Killing more than 30 blood relatives led to the total annihilation of the family, and the punishment was just a "reflection on the wall"?
"What else should I do? That is the only grandson of Hanyang Zhenren, the heir of the Zhang family, since the collapse of the family is a foregone conclusion, do you still want to attack the heir of the family? In that case, whether it is to kill or deprive him of his ability, it is not conducive to the Zhang family, and it can only be like this. ”
Thinking about this as a fact, Zhang Longqian could only shake his head secretly, the sense of absurdity was indelible, and he couldn't help muttering softly: "But...... It's been eight years to face a wall, this is too, isn't it? ”
"I heard that the punishment given by Hanyang Zhenren is 'facing the wall for ten years', and he still has two years."
Hearing Bai Lu's affirmative tone, Zhang Longqian opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't make any sound.
Even if it's helpless, it's ridiculous to think about such a punishment, right?
I always felt that Zhang Hanguang's decision back then was a little inappropriate, but he couldn't say what was wrong, Zhang Longqian couldn't help frowning in confusion, at this time, Zhou Miao, who had been looking at the pages of the book and didn't bother to look at Zhang Longqian's side, finally opened his mouth lightly.
"Long Qian, do you still have time to care about these things?"
“…… Yes? ”
"The graduation exam for the junior class is about to be held, and you are ready for all eighteen courses?"
Suddenly hearing Zhou Miao mention an extremely realistic topic, Zhang Longqian was silent for a moment before replying in a low voice: "That...... It's not ......."
Finally taking his eyes off the book again, Zhou Miao looked at Zhang Longqian, and there was a hint of sternness in his indifferent eyes: "Then you don't hurry up and practice?" The foundation four formations laid for you have been abandoned for several days, and you haven't even remembered the past trip when you are discharged from the hospital, and you are not ready to learn the formation, are you? ”
"I didn't ...... I'm going to ......."
Zhang Longqian couldn't help but shrink his neck, his voice was lowered, and she fled after fidgeting at Zhou Miao's slightly stern gaze.
In fact, after these days of study, although Zhang Longqian's understanding of the basic four formations is not very deep, it is enough to cope with the graduation exam of the junior class, but Zhou Miao, who supervised her to learn the formation, and Feng Xing, who guided her, are very strict, in their opinion, Zhang Longqian's current level can barely protect herself in the formation, of course, she will be required to hurry up and do more practice.
Fortunately, now that the spell has been solved, Zhang Longqian, who was in a good mood, did not make any protests, but went straight to the four basic formations of the Zongheng family.
Before entering the formation, she looked back at Ji Haiyun who had brought her over without complaint, Zhang Longqian opened her mouth to ask him about the murder of her son Zhang Wenyu, but looking at the sunny smile, she opened her mouth several times but still couldn't ask, and finally walked into the basic four formations silently.
As usual, under the guidance of Feng Xing, some formation changes that had not been seen before were triggered, Zhang Longqian avoided the damage of these changes as much as possible according to the methods she had learned in the past few days, and at the same time raised his hand and released a suitable spell to intercept and counterattack the attack of the formation.
When the two spells were released one after the other without pause, Fengxing's voice suddenly became serious.
"No curse, no trick...... When did you do it? ”
After being stunned for a moment, he realized that Feng Xing was talking about using a spell without reciting the spell now, Zhang Longqian avoided the attack of the formation and responded: "It's just before." How's that big brother, I'm pretty good at simplifying spells, right? ”
"'Not bad'?" Feng Xing smiled coldly, "Yes, if you use a spell like this in front of people, then the ending will be really 'not bad'." ”
Feng Xing's rare solemn tone made Zhang Long's heart tremble, and after a few steps of changing steps, she hid in a dead corner of the formation to avoid the ensuing attacks, and then asked Feng Xing about it.
"Big brother, what's wrong?" No curse, no trick'...... Any questions? ”
"There's nothing wrong with the 'No Mantra No Trick' itself, but it's a problem for you."
After a slight pause, Feng Xing's voice seemed a little restless.
"Because of the innate structure of human beings, even a 'mage' can never completely omit the spell seal of the spell."
